I used my Mac SE online in 1991 (or was it 1990... one of those two). I
used it to connect to CompuServe back then.
Not too long after I was using it to connect to Prodigy, although I gave
up on that VERY quickly, it performed like crap on the SE. I don't think
I even made it past Prodigy's trial period (I used it for maybe an hour
over the course of a week)
Then there was a break until maybe 93/94 when I used AOL, also originally
on the SE, but shortly there after on a Quadra 610.
Of course, prior to the SE and CompuServe in 1991, I was using a Mac Plus
on BBS systems (and before that an Apple II+ on BBS as well as the A2 on
CompuServe for a period of time... and on some Dow Jones thing I obtained
>from school).
And of course, I'm sure all my stuff is WAY more modern then many others
on this list were doing.

Gremlin collector on Heavy Metal show about building up an AMC Pacer nd
AMC Gremlin.
The show missed it though, since the MC Pacer was originally a possible
candidate
for a rotary engine that was replaced by a 6 cylinder for road. If they
had refitted
the Pacer with a triced out 13B they would hav ehad a better show if
they had\
been racing Pacer vs something with 300 hp.
sorry for off topic, reply to me

Hi
An alternate method, since this it to be your tinker system,
would be to put a switch so that the EPROM board always
is seen at 0000 when the switch is held. When released,
it takes on the address that is out of the RAM's way.
If you make it so that it is double mapped while the switch
is pushed, making the transition to the normal address is
trivial.
One could even include a one-shot to trigger the reset.

are disks for this puter (68010 based Unix) readable
in a PC? Otherwise how can I go about archiving them? Thanks.

Subject: WTB: DL11
So, one more part I need to get my DIY 11/34 functional, I need a DL11
for its console port.
Since I aparenly was outbid on the one I was bidding on on ebay, I
thought I might see if anyone on here has one available for a reasonable
price.
Thanks,
Pat

Hi everyone!
I???ve decided to part with my assortment of QBUS equipment and peripherals, in order to gain space and raise some money for a SCSI card for my 11/34A.
Here???s what I have:
PDP 11/23 PLUS CPU (in advertised style BA11-S series system unit, with 3 switch front panel and large PDP 11/23 PLUS logo)
Cards are:
KDF11-BA
Dilog DQ130 magtape controller.
One 256KW MOS memory board (DEC, forgot the card name)
One 128KW MOS memory board (same ??? I forgot!)
Two DEQNA Ethernet controllers
RLV11 22-Bit RL-series disk controller board
RL02 cable to ONE RL02 (I never used more than 1 at a time, and I kept putting off getting a cable)
BA11-SE Expansion box
- two DZ11 serial multiplexors (probably worthless, LOL)
And, two RL02 disk drives, and two RL02K-DC disk packs.
Overland Data OD3201 nine track tape drive and ribbon cables.
QBUS-specific manuals:
Microcomputers and Memories 1982
PDP11-23 PLUS System Manual
I???ll sell the whole lot for $500, and if you come pick it up you can have the cabinet it???s in (H9644, missing a few pieces)
If you want parts and pieces:
RL02 disk drives are $175 each plus shipping, include 1 pack.
PDP11/23 PLUS CPU box with CPU card, memory, Ethernet controllers, multiplexors, and both manuals: $250 plus shipping
9 track tape drive with cables and DQ132 controller: $75 + S&H
RL02 controller: $50(with purchase of drive(s)) otherwise, I will not sell it until both RL02s are sold.
BA11-SE QBUS Expansion unit: $100 plus shipping
The machine is located 40 miles north of Chicago, IL at my apartment.
All this stuff is tested working.
If you have any questions, please feel free to email me.

You'd be mighty lucky to get what you want.
The 7501 is a mask programmed 4bit micro with LCD driver
containing a 1024byte program rom and 96 nibbles of ram.
Where used it's a custom part due to the rom.
Know the part well as I used to be the product engineer.

>Silly question, but what does a Stardent workstation consist of?

We had one at work a while ago. It was a 4 foot rack with the computer
made up of large cards with lots of custom IC's with heatsinks. Also
had standard disk drives and the 1/4? inch cartridge tapedrives.
>From what I understood it had good graphics capability for its time and
was reasonably fast. I never used it.
I'm currently seeking to purchase a complete BBC Domesday system with the
LVROM player, trackball, discs, manuals, and of course the BBC Master
system with the appropriate hardware.
I'd also consider pieces of one (especially the manuals) but the entire
setup is my main preference.
This is for a research project I'm currently undertaking and I am willing
to compensate handsomely. I'd also consider a short- to medium-term loan.
This is basically directed at the blokes in the UK as that is obviously
the most likely place for one to show up.
If someone has one or perhaps a lead on a system, please contact me
directly.
Thanks!
